Did you know Chasing Lovely was a fashion blog before it was a band? And that the blog still exists on our website?
•
But there was a period of about two years where I had to completely withdraw myself from the fashion world. No blogging. No buying new clothes. I only purchased necessities like socks, a pair of proper running shoes (I didn't own any) and some yoga pants.
•
Why did I go to this extreme? After watching a documentary on Netflix called "The True Cost", my eyes were opened to the dirty truth about the fast fashion industry: employees who aren't being paid living wages, unsafe working conditions, the unthinkable amounts of textile waste that end up in landfills—all in the name of consumerism and profits.
•
I learned a lot about myself and my relationship with clothes in those two years. I learned to turn off those messages from advertisers that try to make you feel "off trend" every other week. I began to develop a sense of style not based on trends, but rather my own self-expression and preferences.
•
While I haven't reached a point where I have a 100% ethically "conscious" closet, I have come to realize that striking a balance is important. If you're interested in reading about my journey and how you can take steps towards a more sustainable wardrobe, head to the link in our bio!

HAPPY 23rd BIRTHDAY @chloturner!!!! 🎈 🎉🎂🍰🎁🎊 You are my favorite human to sing to The Greatest Showman with and binge watch The Handmaid's Tale with while you make sassy commentary about Aunt Lydia and how you would be the worst handmaid (#PraiseBe) 😂 Thank you for being the best sister ever and bringing me scrambled eggs to my bedside in the morning and surprising me with late-night kombucha and randomly going to @jenisicecreams for a triple scoop plus a scoop 🍨 You are the pookins to my flookins and I hope you have the best birthday ever!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!

Chloe and I have been wanting to do more “summery” activities before summer ends so today we took a day trip to Tallulah Gorge State Park! One way we choose to practice #selfcare is to drive outside of the city, unplug, and explore the great outdoors. Tallulah is about 1h45m outside of Atlanta and totally worth the drive (incredible views ✅ waterfalls ✅)
•
If you’re willing to make the trek, there is a big rock “slide” waterfall that you can slide down! The water is preeetty frigid but feels good after the long (note: strenuous) hike down there. FYI: you need a permit to access the sliding rock. They run out fast, so we recommend getting there early (we left ATL at 6:30am). Be sure to pack a backpack with sunscreen, towels, water, PB&J sandwiches, and plenty of snacks. The rocks and incline can get pretty slippery, so you want to wear shoes with good grip/traction. •
P.S. we may or may not upload video footage of us on our first (terrifying) time down the sliding rock... 😂

Two chances to catch us at @mileofmusicfest today:
5:50pm - Jim’s Place
7:55pm - Dr. Jekyll’s

Appleton, WI! Who’s ready for @mileofmusicfest?! Kicking off our first set tonight at 6pm at McFleshman’s Brewing Co! Can’t wait to see ya there 👋🏼
